Adrenaline123: That is why it's good to carry your camera around.

Daddyzee: Life jackets indeed work, but the usage depends on the type of boat (open boat or enclosed)

In the case of open boats, which I recommend, you must wear your life vests. In case of mishaps, you are thrown into the water and the vest suspends you until rescue comes. It could actually suspend you for days. For Bonny area, help usually comes in minutes. (Avoid night travels)

For closed boats however, if there is a mishap, you are not thrown into the sea. You are rather confined inside the boat and the vests will make it impossible for you to swim out!!! You will therefore be trapped. This was what happened in the unfortunate accident this morning. The boat drivers do not help matters as they also overload the boats, blocking the isles with seats. This will multiply the chances of not being able to come out as many passengers will struggle within that confined space. The survivors are usually those near the entrance.

Safety tips
1. Use open boats and wear life vests for the duration of the journey.
2. If closed boats is the only option, do not wear life vest inside the boat. Stay as near the entrance as possible. If possible, gang up with other passengers and ensure the captain does not block the isle with seats to accommodate more passengers.
3. Avoid night travels
4. Boats with double engines record less breakdowns. Use them if possible

May God give their families the grace to bear the unfortunate loss

okparaugo: Wow. This is is what breeds militancy.

People should start shooting these criminals.in uniform.

I still cannot forget 10pm 21st March 2013 night they threatened to kill me and dispose me.

I told them that all men are not equal, that if they doubt let them try it. I gave them tough time that night, they seized my car and my phone similar style and went and parked the car at the station. Refused to give me my phone after that and I can't find a vehicle home. Only option was to trek like 20 kilometers home.

I just use.my spare key carry my motor. The phone pain me for some time and I forgot. Seriously I should have contacted the CP if I knew those numbers were easily available.

Stu.pid illiterates..

MissMeiya: Confession: My mother and I cancelled our visit to Lagos this month.

I was very insistent. My mom is all I have. *shame*

My dad is going to Calabar soon, and I insisted he go directly to domestic from international. Now Ebola is in Port Harcourt, and my heart is pounding.

PERFECT2: ILLUMINATI sent them packing.

balamz: At 19, her eye go don open and I suggest you do the following:
1 Explain to her the bad side of having a boyfriend I.e distraction from achieving her goals in life.
2 Tell her nobody would help her in hard times except her family, which is you.
3 Tell her nobody cares about her in the whole wide world except you, if she want to know the truth. Let her shock the dude with news of her being pregnant and she would see how the dude would run like a rat into the hole to hide.
4. Show her more love, care and attention. Don't be strict on her or else she would turn her back against you.
5. Give her reason to be more focus in life instead of watching tv. Dstv is just an entertainment. The actors she sees on tv are living a fake life. Example: Nobody knew jim lyke had a problem going by what we see on tv.
6. In times of cooking, you can joking tell her to come and see how food is being made, then from time to time you can use tricks on her to start cooking maybe from boiling of rice to stew and so on.
7. in times of cleaning the house, you can tell her to sweep only a small proportion and always use the word "abeg help me" because she may see its as a form of help not command and as time goes on she would be used to its.
8. Give her example of Dangote and other business men and women, whether she have seen any of them sharing their secret of how they made its in life. Why? Because that secret can only be share among their sons and daughters. That how the world is. Nobody cares about you or how you feel.
9. You can also share your issues with her so that in turn she does the same. Always gist. Bring funny topics.
10. A successful family is always a happy family. One problem from her affect the family only.
Don't be strict on her.
